Chrysostomos P. Panayiotopoulos MD, PhD, FRCP, Editor-in-Chief, is a renowned expert in the field of the epilepsies. He has written over 140 articles and editorials in prestigious journals.

"Panayiotopoulos syndrome" and autonomic status epilepticus specific to childhood are amongst his main contributions.
